In each case, the CEF excitations are considerably broadened, due to Kondo hybridization of the localized f-moments with the conduction electrons. Fits to a phenomenological CEF model reproduce the inelastic neutron scattering spectra and the hightemperature magnetic susceptibility. We also present calculations within the noncrossing approximation (NCA) to the Anderson impurity model, including the effect of CEF level-splitting for the inelastic neutron scattering spectra and the magnetic susceptibility. Our results indicate that the CEF level-splitting in all three materials is similar, and can be thought of as being derived from the cubic parent compound CeIn 3 in which an excited state quartet at 12 mev is split into two doublets by the lower symmetry of the tetragonal environment of the CeMIn 5 materials. The evolution of the superconducting transition temperatures in the different members of CeMIn 5 can be understood as a direct consequence of the strength of the 4f conduction electron hybridization. DOI: /PhysRevB PACS number(s): b, Ch, Nx I. INTRODUCTION The discovery of the family of CeMIn 5 M =Co,Rh,Ir heavy Fermion superconductors has sparked great interest. 1 5 This is in large part due to the small number of heavy fermion superconductors available for study, the unusually high T c 2.3 K observed for CeCoIn 5, 3 and the presence of superconductivity and magnetism in the same crystal structure. The substitution of different transition metals (Co, Rh, or Ir) affects the nearest neighbor environment of the Ce 3+ ion both through small changes in the position of the neighboring ions and through differing hybridization of the Ce f electron with the conduction electrons. This allows for a comparison among the different members of the family where many of the complicating effects normally encountered in the study of heavy fermion materials can be taken to be approximately the same. All members of the CeMIn 5 family crystallize in the tetragonal HoCoGa 5 crystal structure (space group P4/mmm) and can be viewed structurally as being composed of alternating layers of CeIn 3 and MIn 2. At ambient pressure, CeCoIn 5 and CeIrIn 5 are superconducting at and 0.4 K2, 2 respectively. On the other hand, CeRhIn 5 undergoes an antiferromagnetic transition at 3.8 K and upon the application of pressure becomes superconducting at 2.1 K and 16 kbar coinciding with a suppression of the Néel order. 1 The origin of superconductivity in these materials remains poorly understood. However, there is substantial evidence of the unconventional nature of the superconductivity, including power-law behavior in the low temperature specific heat and thermal conductivity 6,7 and the spin lattice relaxation rate A prominent view of the origin of heavy Fermion superconductivity in the CeMIn 5 compounds is that they are in close proximity to a quantum critical point (QCP) The substitution of one transition metal for another in this family changes the 4f conduction electron hybridization in a manner analogous to the effect of applied pressure on CeIn The Kondo temperature T K increases from 5 K in CeRhIn 5 to 17 K in CeCoIn 5 ; 28 when the Kondo energy becomes sufficiently larger than the antiferromagnetic exchange an evolution to a nonmagnetic and superconducting state occurs. The strong magnetic fluctuations present near a QCP are then implicated as the analog to phonons in conventional BCS superconductivity. Crystalline electric field (CEF) effects are important for the heavy fermion ground states in these materials. It has been argued that the symmetry of the ground state CEF doublet in these materials may be directly relevant to the f conduction electron hybridization and in some cases may produce spin fluctuations which are more favorable to the formation of the superconducting condensate. 17 In another proposal, CEF splitting affects the competition between spin and orbital fluctuations that, in turn, controls the ground state configuration. 18 A number of attempts have been made based upon bulk measurements to elucidate the CEF splittings in the CeMIn 5 series 17,19 22 but there are significant discrepancies in the reported results. To clarify the role of CEF excitations and to resolve the discrepancies found in previous experiments, we have performed inelastic neutron scattering (INS) experiments that directly probe the CEF excitations in the CeMIn 5 series. For Ce 3+ in a tetragonal environment, the CEF Hamiltonian can be written as /2004/70(13)/134505(9)/$ The American Physical Society

Diagonalization of this Hamiltonian yields the following wave functions = ± , 7 2 = ± , 6 = ± 2. 1 The energy levels are determined from the positions of the peaks in the INS spectra, while the mixing parameters ( and ) are determined from the ratios of the integrated weights of the peaks. The 4f conduction electron hybridization that is responsible for the Kondo effect causes the CEF excitation energies to shift to higher energies and the linewidths to broaden by an amount proportional to k B T K. The linewidth of the quasielastic scattering within the groundstate doublet is essentially equal to the Kondo energy k B T K. A commonly applied phenomenology for calculating the susceptibility treats the CEF levels as delta functions but adds a molecular field term to the CEF susceptibility CEF so that 1/ tot =1/ CEF +. Such a term is often used to represent antiferromagnetic interactions = T N /C J. When positive, it also can represent the Kondo effect at high temperatures where C 5/2 / T+ T K (where C 5/2 is the J=5/2 Curie constant for Ce and 1) so that = T K /C J. Such an ad hoc approach, cannot, however, capture the effect of Kondo scattering on the susceptibility and neutron spectra at low temperature. The Kondo effect can be treated consistently at all temperatures in a calculation of the CEF scattering and the magnetic susceptibility that includes the CEF energies and mixing parameters in the Anderson impurity model. Of course, neither of these approaches correctly treats the antiferromagnetic correlations and/or 4f lattice coherence that are expected at low temperatures in these compounds. In the next section we give details of the experimental and theoretical techniques applied in this study. In Sec. III we present the INS spectra for the members M =Co, Ir, Rh of the CeMIn 5 family and fits to the INS spectra and the magnetic 1 2 susceptibility using both the CEF phenomenology and Anderson model calculations. A discussion of error analysis, other determinations of the CEF level schemes, and the importance of CEF excitations to CeMIn 5 is given in Sec. IV. In Sec. V we summarize our results and conclusions. II. EXPERIMENTAL AND THEORETICAL DETAILS Large high quality single crystals of CeMIn 5 and the nonmagnetic analogous LaMIn 5 were obtained using the fluxgrowth method. 24 For CeCoIn 5 and YCoIn 5, polycrystalline samples were obtained by heating stochiometric amounts of the constituent elements in an alumina crucible sealed within a quartz tube to 1100 C, and cooling to 900 C, and then quenching in liquid nitrogen. After the samples were annealed at 600 C for 3 weeks, they were then etched in dilute HCl to remove excess free In. Subsequent magnetic susceptibility measurements indicated the free In content to be less than 2%. 25 The resulting samples were powdered and placed in a rigid flat plate aluminum sample holder. This sample geometry served to not only minimize the effect of the strong neutron absorption of Rh, Ir, and In but maintained a uniform sample distribution enabling an accurate absorption correction. Inelastic neutron scattering experiments were performed on two inelastic chopper spectrometers: PHAROS at the Manuel Lujan Neutron Science Center (Los Alamos National Laboratory) and LRMECS at the Intense Pulsed Neutron Source (Argonne National Laboratory). The experimental configuration of LRMECS is the same as described previously. 26 The experimental configuration of PHAROS is similar to LRMECS but with the notable exceptions of position sensitive detectors, which cover a larger angular range , and a much larger sample moderator distance 18 m, enabling higher resolution experiments. To fully explore the magnetic contribution to the INS spectrum, experiments were performed at a variety of incident energies E i and temperatures T, as shown in Table I. We have taken advantage of the nondispersive nature of CEF excitations and summed the signal in all detectors over a range of scattering angles 5 45 to improve the statistics of the data

Solid squares (open circles) indicate the spectrum for CeCoIn 5 LaIrIn 5 collected at 18 K with E i =30.2 mev. (b) Temperature dependence of the INS response of CeCoIn 5. Shown is data collected at 80 K subtracted from data collected at 18 K with E i =48.5 mev where the spectra at each temperature is normalized as described in the text. We adopted two of the most frequently used methods to subtract the nonmagnetic scattering and extract the magnetic contribution to the INS spectra. Method one relies on subtracting the scattering observed in the nonmagnetic analog from that of the specified magnetic material. In this case the magnetic contribution S mag =S Ce,SQ fs NM,SQ, where SQ means small Q or low angle, NM means the nonmagnetic analog, and f is the ratio of the total scattering cross-section of the magnetic and nonmagnetic analog Ce / NM. For method two, the nonmagnetic analog is used to determine a scaling factor R =S NM,LQ /S NM,SQ between the high and low angle data (LQ represents large Q or high angle data). This same factor is then used to scale the high angle data (where nonmagnetic scattering dominates) to small angles (where magnetic scattering dominates) in the Ce compound. (As variants on these methods, we also allow the factors f or R to be variable parameters in the least-squares fits to the CEF model.) In the results reported here, method one has been used. We will discuss the effect of different background subtractions further in Sec. IV. To determine the CEF scheme and the effect of Kondo spin fluctuations, we have adopted both approaches discussed in the Introduction. In the first method we fit the magnetic contribution to the scattering to a CEF model for Ce 3+ in a tetragonal environment. Several datasets for different incident energies and/or temperatures were fit simultaneously. The fitting variables were the CEF parameters (B l m s), the width ie of the inelastic excitations (which are modeled as Lorentzians), and a scale factor for each dataset. We were unable to resolve a quasielastic contribution to the INS spectra. To prevent proliferation of fitting parameters, we constrained the quasielastic width qe to be 1/4 of the inelastic width ie. For CeRhIn 5 (Ref. 27) and CeCoIn 5 (Ref. 25) this gives values of qe that are in good agreement with estimates from NMR experiments. 28 We then used the parameters derived from these fits in a calculation of the magnetic susceptibility CEF. The CEF levels were treated as delta functions in energy and a mean field parameter was added to represent the Kondo effect at high temperatures. In addition, we have carried out calculations for the Anderson impurity model for a J=5/2 impurity in the presence of CEF using the noncrossing approximation (NCA). As in Ref. 27, we have used a Gaussian background band with halfwidth (at half maximum) 2.5 ev, setting the 4f level 2 ev below the Fermi level and including a spin orbit splitting ev of the J=7/2 states. The Kondo physics renormalizes the input CEF energies upwards by an amount approximately equal to k B T K, so the bare energies were chosen correspondingly smaller than those obtained from the CEF fits outlined above. The mixing parameter [Eq. (2)] and the 4f conduction electron hybridization parameter V were then chosen to give reasonable fits to both the INS spectra and to the measured susceptibility. III. RESULTS AND ANALYSIS We now present the results of INS on CeMIn 5. We have made preliminary reports of some of these results elsewhere. 25,27,29 For the M =Co, Ir compounds we first present data that have been minimally processed in order to convey unambiguously the presence of magnetic scattering in the INS spectra. These data also serve as an indication of the uncertainty present in the measurements. (For CeRhIn

The remainder of the parameters are as defined in the text. Except for 2 and which are dimensionless and which is given in (mol/emu), all units are mev. In all three materials the groundstate is a 7 1, the first excited state a 7 2, and the second excited state is a 6. The numbers in square brackets are from the NCA calculations.

In both (a) and (b) the solid line indicates a simultaneous fit to a CEF model. The dashed line in (a) is the result of an NCA calculation as described in the text. similar data have been reported elsewhere. 27 ) We then present the magnetic portion of the scattering as well as the results of least squares fits to the CEF model and representative NCA calculations. A. CeCoIn 5 In Fig. 1(a), INS spectra collected on PHAROS for CeCoIn 5 is contrasted to that of LaIrIn 5 with E i =30.2 mev at 18 K. The extra intensity in the INS spectra for CeCoIn 5 relative to the nonmagnetic analog LaIrIn 5 is attributed to CEF excitations in CeCoIn 5. Further evidence of CEF excitations in CeCoIn 5 is provided in Fig. 1(b). Here we use data that have not been corrected for neutron absorption or for the sample holder scattering. We subtract the data for E i =48.5 mev at 80 K from that taken at 10 K. Each spectra has been normalized by the factor n +1=(1 exp /k B T ) 1 to account for the phonon population change with temperature. (This normalization only significantly affects the results at low energy transfers.) The fact that the difference shown in Fig. 1(b) is positive on the energy loss side of the spectrum is characteristic of the presence of CEF excitations. As the occupation of the ground state doublet decreases with increasing temperature, the amplitude of the excitation from the ground state to the excited states also decreases. We conclude that two broad CEF excitations centered at approximately 9 mev and 25 mev are present in the spectra for CeCoIn 5. The magnetic part of the scattering, S mag (method 1) is displayed for CeCoIn 5 in Fig. 2. The dependence of the magnetic form factor has been removed so that the spectra represent the Q=0 scattering. In Fig. 2(a) the open circles and triangles are for INS spectra collected at 10 K with LRMECS using E i =35 and 60 mev. Note that there are two broad peaks in S mag, which is consistent with the previous assessment of the data in Fig. 1. Figure 2(b) displays S mag for E i =30.2 mev collected at 18 K on PHAROS. In both Figs. 2(a) and 2(b) the solid line represents a simultaneous fit to the CEF model for all three datasets. The resulting CEF parameters and other pertinent parameters are summarized in Table II. These results indicate that 7 1 is the ground state, 7 2 is the first excited state, and the second excited state is 6. Due to the J z = ±1 selection rule, the intensity of the peaks is sensitive to the degree of admixture of the J z =5/2 and 3/2 states in the 7 1 and 7 2 states. In particular, the strength of the 25 mev excitation is proportional to. The large widths of the inelastic excitations indicate the importance of strong Kondo spin fluctuations. In Fig. 3(a) we compare the measured magnetic susceptibility to the calculated value based on the CEF parameters determined from the INS data. The value of the mean field parameter, which accounts for the reduction of the susceptibility at high temperature due to the Kondo effect, is given in Table II. In Figs. 2(a) and 3(a) we also present the results of the NCA Anderson impurity calculation with input parameters given in Table II. B. CeIrIn 5 INS spectra for CeIrIn 5 and LaIrIn 5 are presented in Fig. 4. In Fig. 4(a) the INS spectrum for CeIrIn 5 is shown along with that of LaIrIn 5 with E i =30.2 mev at 18 K. The spectra have been corrected for monitor counts, sample mass, neutron absorption, and the contribution of the empty sample holder. Additional intensity is observed for CeIrIn 5 relative to LaIrIn 5, consistent with the presence of broadened CEF excitations in CeIrIn 5. As in CeCoIn 5, more detail is pro

Here we use data that have not been corrected for neutron absorption or FIG. 5. S mag for CeIrIn 5. The open circles, closed circles and open diamonds indicate S mag for data collected at 10 K on LRMECS with E i =15, 30 and 60 mev, respectively. The data have been smoothed for clarity. The solid line indicates a simultaneous fit to a CEF model. The dashed line is the result of an NCA calculation as described in the text. for the empty holder scattering. Together, Figs. 4(a) and 4(b) indicate a broad CEF excitation centered in the 3 5 mev range and a second excitation near 30 mev. The magnetic contribution to the INS spectra of CeIrIn 5 is displayed in Fig. 5. For clarity, the data have been smoothed. (Unsmoothed data as well as the magnetic part of the PHAROS INS spectra are reported in Ref. 29.) The symbols in Fig. 5 for three different E i s indicate two very broad peaks which are attributed to CEF excitations. The solid line in Fig. 5 is a fit to a CEF model, similar to the one previously presented for CeCoIn 5. The resulting parameters of this fit are summarized in Table II. As in the case of CeCoIn 5, 7 1 is the ground state, 7 2 is the first excited state, and the second excited state is 6. The CEF parameters also reproduce the high temperature magnetic susceptibility as shown in Fig. 3(b). The CEF splitting 6.7 mev is somewhat smaller for the first excited state in CeIrIn 5 than in CeCoIn 5 ; however, ie is somewhat larger: 8.7 mev as compared to 6.6 mev for CeCoIn 5. The results of NCA calculations are included in Figs. 3(b) and 5 as dashed lines. FIG. 4. (a) Inelastic neutron scattering spectra for CeIrIn 5 and LaIrIn 5 with E i =30.2 mev at 18 K.

Shown is data collected at 70 K subtracted from data collected at 18 K with E i =30.2 mev on PHAROS and data collected at 100 K subtracted from data collected at 10 K with E i =80 mev on LRMECS where the spectra at each temperature is normalized as described in the text. C. CeRhIn 5 Figure 6(a) shows the results of subtracting the data for CeRhIn 5 at 80 K from that taken at 10 K; CEF excitations are apparent at 7 and 25 mev. Figure 6(b) shows S mag for CeRhIn 5. (We have obtained similar data with PHAROS which confirms the results of Ref. 27.) The 25 mev peak intensity is smaller relative to the 7 mev peak than in either CeCoIn 5 or CeIrIn 5. This indicates that CeRhIn 5 must have the least admixture of the J z =3/2 state in the 7 1 ground state. Note that the admixture of J z =3/2 is not zero, since the peak intensity of the 25 mev excitation then would be identically zero and this is clearly not the case. The solid line in Fig. 6(b) indicates the best fit to a CEF model with parameters as summarized in Table II. The relative ordering of the wave functions is the same for CeRhIn 5 as for CeCoIn

The dashed line in (b) is the result of an NCA calculation as described in the text. and CeIrIn 5. The results of the NCA calculations are shown in Figs. 3(c) and 6(b). IV. DISCUSSION We first discuss the systematic errors in our determination of the CEF parameters. Because absorption is strong in these compounds, the signals are weak, and under these circumstances it is possible to overestimate the linewidth of broad peaks. Since the excitations in CeRhIn 5 and CeCoIn 5 are reasonably well-resolved, we do not think this is a problem. Hence we argue that the large observed linewidths, especially in CeIrIn 5, are not artifacts of the analysis but are real effects. Absorption also affects the estimate of the strength of the transition, since the final neutron energies are small for these larger energy transfers. Our absorption correction is based on a flat plate sample geometry and errors could arise from variation in sample thickness. This leads to an unknown uncertainty in our estimate of. The determination of the nonmagnetic scattering also leads to systematic uncertainty. Methods discussed in Sec. II are reasonable but not rigorous. To estimate the resulting systematic uncertainty, we have examined the range of parameters obtained for all methods of nonmagnetic scattering subtraction. We find for all compounds that variations in are small ±0.05 and variations in E are of order ±2 mev. Variations in E are small ±0.2 mev for CeRhIn 5, larger ±1 mev for CeCoIn 5 and largest for CeIrIn 5. Due to the large inelastic linewidth in CeIrIn 5, the excitations are not well resolved, so that values of E in the range 0 7 mev all give reasonable fits to the INS spectra and susceptibility. In all cases, the estimates of systematic error are larger than the statistical error. Consequently, error bars are not given in Table II. The values we report in Table II can be viewed as representative, within these limits. They are obtained on the same spectrometers, under identical conditions, with identical methods of absorption correction and nonmagnetic background subtraction (method one). Hence, the results are consistent between the compounds and should accurately reflect trends in the CEF parameters. Our method of subtracting high temperature from low temperature raw data [Figs. 1(b), 4(b), and 6(a)] confirms that the positions of the peaks given in Table II are essentially correct. Further, the ratio of the peak intensity to that of the peak increases in the sequence M=Rh, Ir, Co which also confirms the trend seen in Table II that increases in the same sequence. In addition, the calculations of the susceptibility based on the parameters of Table II adequately represent the magnitude and anisotropy of the susceptibility for T K. These calculations include a single mean-field parameter that accounts for the reduction of the susceptibility by the Kondo effect (and also by antiferromagnetic correlations) at high temperatures. The values of T K obtained from the assumption =T K /C 5/2 are 28, 32 and 56 K for M=Rh, Co, Ir, respectively. These can be viewed as high temperature Kondo temperatures, in the regime where the excited states are occupied. As such, they are not only reasonable, but they also show the same trend as the inelastic linewidths, to which they should be proportional. Given all this, we believe that the values of excitation energies, mixing parameters and linewidths given in Table II are essentially correct, within the limits of systematic error. The CEF parameters that we propose for CeMIn 5 are straightforwardly related to those of the parent compound CeIn 3. In CeIn 3, the ground state is a 7 doublet, but the excited state at 12 mev is a 8 quartet Upon lowering the cubic symmetry of CeIn 3 to the tetragonal symmetry of CeMIn 5, the 4-fold degeneracy of the 8 quartet is lifted, resulting in the CEF level scheme consisting of three doublets as described in Sec. I. The ground state remains the 7 (denoted as 1 7 in tetragonal symmetry), but the value of is no longer restricted to the value 5 6 required in cubic symmetry. For CeCoIn 5, the mixing parameter remains close to the value that it has for cubic symmetry, but for the other two compounds, deviates substantially. The quartet splits such that the first excited state is the 2 7 doublet and the second excited state is the 6 doublet. We next address the issue of the uniqueness of the determination of the CEF parameters. We first note that experimental probes of CEF excitations are unable to differentiate between a positive and negative value of B 4 4, i.e., only the modulii of the matrix elements are observable. Consequently, the distinction between the 1 7 and 2 7 states is a matter of convention. We have chosen 1 7 as the ground state in analogy with the cubic case. There are two alternatives to our assignment of the 6 doublet as the highest level. If the 6 doublet were the ground state, B 0 2 would be positive. In tetragonal symmetry at high temperatures and in the absence of the Kondo effect or magnetic correlations, the parameter B 0 2 should be proportional to 1/ ab 1/ c 33 and, hence, should be negative. If the 6 were the first excited state, the strong peak intensity near 7 mev in CeRhIn 5 and the J z

However, this would imply that the second excited state is mostly J z =5/2, so that there should be a strong amplitude for the transition to the upper level, contrary to the observed INS spectra. This basic situation is similar in CeIrIn 5 but is less clear in CeCoIn 5 where the amplitudes of both excited state peaks are comparable. However, because the CEF spitting in CeCoIn 5 is intermediate between that of CeIrIn 5 and CeRhIn 5 and because the susceptibility of the three compounds is essentially similar, the same CEF level scheme for all three cases is highly probable. The results of all previous attempts to determine the CEF parameters in CeMIn 5 are summarized in Table III. The older results are based on susceptibility, specific heat C v and thermal expansion measurements and are relatively insensitive to the upper excitation 2 because the CEF contributions to, C v and are small at the higher temperatures where this excitation becomes thermally populated. All three previous attempts at identifying the CEF level scheme in CeCoIn 5 identify a 1 7 ground state, except for the case of Refs. 17 and 19. These latter authors identify a 6 ground state and a positive value for B 0 2. To account for this in their analysis of the magnetic susceptibility, a large and anisotropic mean field parameter was included. We think this is unlikely for the reasons given above. The results of Ref. 22 indicate a 1 7 ground state; however, they find =0.519, which indicates a larger admixture of the J z =5/2 state into the ground state than determined here. They also find somewhat different energy splittings. The results of Ref. 21 show a similar to that determined here, but minor differences in the value of the splittings. For CeIrIn 5 the value of found in Ref. 20 is significantly different from that we find, though the excitation energies are in reasonable agreement. Apart from the sign convention, the ground state proposed in Ref. 17 is similar to the one proposed here; however, in that work the first excited state is a 6 doublet and the energy of the second excited state is much smaller than reported here. All previous attempts to determine the CEF level scheme in CeRhIn 5 agree on the relative ordering of the CEF levels. However, Refs. 17 and 20 propose such small values of that the intensity of the second excited state would be considerably smaller than we observe. Moreover, for the small proposed in Refs. 17 and 20, the calculated in-plane magnetic moment g B J x is a factor of two smaller than the in-plane ordered moment observed by neutron diffraction 0.75 B. 34 The in-plane moment 0.92 B calculated using the value of that we propose is in better agreement with the observed value, and also suggests a moderate degree of moment reduction due to the Kondo effect. We now turn to a discussion of the NCA calculations. It is clear from the broadness of the CEF excitations in CeMIn 5 that Kondo spin fluctuations play an essential role. However, only a modest increase in hybridization (Table II) is required to reproduce the observed changes in linewidths of the CEF excitations. For CeIrIn 5 the linewidth is sufficiently large that the first excited doublet cannot be resolved, and we find that we can fit the data assuming values of E in the range 0 7 mev. This means that the groundstate can be treated as a quartet. We note that the NCA calculations are unable to reproduce the low temperature features in the magnetic susceptibility. For this reason, and for the reason that we can find no set of CEF parameters which reproduces both the neutron data and the plateau in the c-axis magnetic susceptibility in CeCoIn 5, we believe that the feature must be due to correlations. 21 Table II shows that there is no correlation between the magnitude of 1 and the superconducting transition temperature, as suggested by recent theory. 18 However, as the superconducting transition temperature increases so does the mixing parameter. Moreover, an increase of level width (i.e., hybridization) correlates with the formation of the superconducting state as can be seen from the values of ie in Table II. A similar correlation is observed on comparison of CeCu 2 Ge 2 (antiferromagnetic at 4.1 K 35 ) and CeCu 2 Si 2 (su

PHYSICAL REVIEW B 70, (2004) perconducting at 0.5 K 36 ): CeCu 2 Si 2 has a larger ie than CeCu 2 Ge 2 (Refs. 35 and 37) and tuning the hybridization of CeCu 2 Ge 2 with applied pressure results in a superconducting transition of 0.64 at 101 kbar. 38 This also is consistent with the behavior of CeIn 3 under pressure 16 where at ambient pressure ie for the CEF excitation in antiferromagnetic CeIn 3 3 mev 32 is consistent with the value found in antiferromagnetic CeRhIn mev rather than the much larger values of ie found in either of the ambient pressure superconductors CeCoIn mev or CeIrIn mev. With the application of pressure, the hybridization in CeIn 3 is tuned, suppressing the antiferromagnetic order. The superconducting state is then formed near the QCP where antiferromagnetic order is suppressed. The evolution of the hybridization in CeMIn 5 indicates a similar picture where the substitution of a different transition metal is sufficient to change the hybridization. This suggests that CeCoIn 5, for which the superconducting transition temperature is highest and ie is fairly large, is near the QCP, while CeRhIn 5, which at ambient pressure is magnetically ordered and for which ie is relatively small, is on the magnetic side of the QCP. CeIrIn 5, where the superconducting transition temperature is lower and ie is larger than in CeCoIn 5, is slightly farther out on the nonmagnetic side of the QCP phase diagram. The QCP picture has been advocated by a number of previous authors V. CONCLUSIONS We have measured the CEF excitations of the CeMIn 5 M =Co,Rh,Ir series of heavy fermion superconductors by means of INS. The CEF excitations are broadened by the effect of Kondo spin fluctuations. Consequently, we have adopted two approaches to determine the CEF parameters, energy level splittings, and wave functions. The first approach fits the magnetic portion of the INS spectra by a CEF model where the peak widths are represented by a Lorentzian line shape. The second approach utilizes NCA calculations and represents a more sophisticated means of accounting for the effect of Kondo spin fluctuations. Both of these methods are able to reproduce the INS data and the magnetic susceptibility. Furthermore, these approaches yield a picture in which the CEF level splitting in all three materials is similar and can be thought of as being derived from the cubic parent compound CeIn 3 in which an excited state quartet is split into two doublets by the lower symmetry of the tetragonal environment of CeMIn 5. Although we find no correlation between the superconducting transition temperature and the level splitting, we do find a correlation between the f conduction electron hybridization and the superconducting transition temperature where significant hybridization is required for the formation of the superconducting state.
